About the role:Our Pricing Platform team is responsible for building and operating the systems that decide what every Remitly customer pays, in real time, across our global corridor footprint. We bring pricing to life by serving rate decisions through high-throughput services that touch every transaction on web, mobile, and partner channels.
The team has a dual mandate: deliver pricing decisions that win on customer experience and business performance, while building the platform that lets our economists, data scientists, and pricing managers ship new models and improvements without going through engineering for every change. We tackle complex problems at the intersection of distributed systems, machine learning, and pricing economics, across a global footprint and a long tail of corridors most of the industry ignores.
Strong candidates may have experience with:- Python services on AWS Lambda or Cloud Run, built with FastAPI and Pydantic, that's most of the platform
- Real-time pricing, payments, or other financially sensitive systems where accuracy, auditability, and graceful fallback are first-class requirements
- Productionizing ML for pricing, demand, or FX, and the experimentation patterns that go with it (A/B tests, bandits, causal inference, shadow mode, kill switches)
- RAG and LLM-based extraction over messy real-world inputs like partner contracts, emails, and spreadsheets, turning unstructured documents into structured pricing inputs
- Large-scale data pipelines on BigQuery, plus web-scale competitive scraping (proxy rotation, anti-detection, scheduled crawls)
- Working alongside agentic AI tooling: we expect engineers to amplify themselves with Claude Code and multi-agent workflows
You may be a good fit if you:- Have software engineering experience
- Are results-oriented, with a bias towards flexibility and impact
- Interested in unique opportunities in machine learning systems and infrastructure space
- Thrive in environments where technical excellence directly drives both business results and research breakthroughs
Representative projects across the org:- Designing the real-time pricing services that price every Remitly transaction across our global corridor footprint
- Building data pipelines that turn external market signals into inputs for pricing decisions
- Productionizing pricing models that respond to real-time market conditions on our highest-volume corridors
- Building cost-plus pricing pipelines that scale our operations across the long tail of corridors
- Re-architecting legacy pricing components for latency, reliability, and operational simplicity
- Partnering with Treasury, Risk, and Compliance on shared standards for financially sensitive systems
